Previous study found there was a negative relationship between Al-induced PCD and Al-resistance in peanut. The present research was undertaken to verify whether mitochondria play a significant role in PCD induced by Al in peanut. The roots of Al-tolerant plants were found to exhibit more intensive root growth, while accumulating less Al³⁺ than Al-sensitive plants under Al treatment. The different enhancement of ROS production was observed in the mitochondria isolated from two peanut cultivars. The concentration of mitochondrial MDA in root tips increased after Al treatment, which was higher in Zhonghua 2 than in 99-1507. With the increase of Al concentration, mitochondrial Ca²⁺ concentration decreased, and Ca²⁺ concentration of Zhonghua 2 decreased faster than that of 99-1507. The opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore was more extensively in mitochondria isolated from Zhonghua 2 than from 99-1507. The collapse of inner mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) was also observed with a release of Cytochrome c (Cyt c) from mitochondria, it was more obvious in Zhonghua 2 than in 99-1507 with Al concentration increasing. The results showed that mitochondrial membrane structure and function were damaged seriously in Al-induced PCD, the increase of mitochondrial antioxidant system activity decreased cellular damages under Al stress. To sum up, compared with Al-sensitive peanut cultivar, Al-tolerant peanut cultivar has less Al³⁺ absorption, mitochondrial ROS and membrane lipid peroxidation level, higher control of MPT opening, ΔΨm maintaining, Cty c release from mitochondria and mitochondrial respiratory functions so that it is not easy to produce PCD under Al stress.

Aluminium (Al)-induced programmed cell death (PCD) is thought to be a main cause of Al phytotoxicity. However, the underlying mechanism by which Al induces PCD in plants is unclear. In this study, we characterized the function of AhASRK1 (Aluminum Sensitive Receptor-like protein Kinase1), an Al-induced LRR-type receptor-like kinase gene.

The toxicity of aluminum (Al) in acidic soil inhibits plant development and reduces crop yields. Programmed cell death (PCD) is one of the important mechanisms in the plant response to Al toxicity. However, it is yet unknown if S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) provides Al-PCD.

The toxicity of aluminum (Al) in acidic soil inhibits plant root development and reduces crop yields. In the plant response to Al toxicity, the initiation of programmed cell death (PCD) appears to be an important mechanism for the elimination of Al-damaged cells to ensure plant survival. In a previous study, the type I metacaspase AhMC1 was found to regulate the Al stress response and to be essential for Al-induced PCD.

The toxicity of aluminum (Al) in acidic soil is a prevalent problem and causes reduced crop yields. In the plant response to Al toxicity, programmed cell death (PCD) appears to be one of the important mechanisms. However, the regulation of Al-induced PCD remains poorly understood.

Lipid peroxidation is a primary event in plant roots exposed to aluminum (Al) toxicity, which leads to the formation of reactive aldehydes. Current evidence demonstrates that the resultant aldehydes are integrated components of cellular damage in plants. Here, we investigated the roles of aldehydes in mediating Al-induced damage, particularly cell death, using two wheat genotypes with different Al resistances.
